You see, they're both just fantasy roles, and we all love that. We know Santa Clause is fake, and we know the revolution wasn't really like that.
We like the lie, because on a certain level, we understand that life is all about magical moments. |
you would think that men and women, when making a decision that involves exposing yourself at the most intimate level with the potentially dire consequences of creating conscious life, you'd THINK that you'd want to be in "adult mode" for such a time. But that is too much to ask for some people. Those "magical moments" come at a price.
I've never liked the Santa lie, nor the historical lies we are told in school (actually I despise these). Personally, I prefer the truth to the lie. Always have, always will. So don't say "we all love fantasies and lies" cause I for one don't. Real life is good enough for me, thank you very much. Yea I know, I'm just a serious, no fun loser whose bitter he can't do PUA with the best of 'em.
I do agree some other things you say however, that anyone who wants to break the seduction dance, can. But let's not romanticize the process into something it's not. It's simply pushing reptilian buttons to satisfy LCD urges. Nothing wrong with that, but it is what it is.
